Lady Gaga said in her deposition testimony: "You don't get a schedule. You don't get a schedule that is like you punch in and you can play... at your desk for four hours and then you punch out at the end of the day. This is when I need you, you're available."

The lawsuit settlement was revealed on Monday (October 21). However, the exact details have yet to be confirmed.
